At the beginning of a pandemic, during the exponential growth, the rate of spread is independent of the size of the population, and therefore using the absolute numbers does have a meaning for understanding the spread of the virus. At later stages however, to have a better comparison of countries and their efforts to stop the virus spreading, we need to normalize the number by the population size.
